We have three major grocery stores here...Giant, Safeway, and Food Lion.
Their prices are comparable. No Magruders, sadly.

All the gas stations down here are within a penny of each other for
regular. Saving $1.00 a gallon for a fill-up leaves $23 in my pocket.


Well, since you very rarely leave your basement, and from your size it
appears that you can easily eat $1000 of groceries a week, it is easy
for you to always pay $1 less per gallon.

For the rest of us, it would take over a month to spend $1000 at the
grocery store, and we fill up at least once a week.

Y'all crybabies down there have it made.
Wife just spent $240.00 CDN for next weeks groceries at a local
supermarket... and this doesn't even count most paper products etc that we
pick up at Costco
No problem spending a grand a month up here on grub... and that would be
equal to about $1050. of your funny money.
